This week, we're joined by Jasmine Lopez a powerful voice in the world of financial healing and community care. She's a proud 2nd generation Puerto Rican/Mexican who grew up in a single-parent home, and her early experiences shaped a complex relationship with money, self-worth, and mental health. After navigating financial hardships—including bankruptcy in her mid-20s—she began a transformational journey of redefining success, healing from within, and breaking free from limiting beliefs.

Since 2017, she’s been doing the deep work: therapy, financial coaching, goal-setting with friends, and exploring holistic healing beyond just talk therapy. Through storytelling, creativity, and community, she's built a vision for Mentally Mutual—a space where collective healing and thriving is the mission.

In this episode, we dive into money mindset, mental health, healthcare access, nonprofits, and so much more. You’re gonna want to take notes.

Imagine a powerful queen so fierce, so respected, that she actually held more military authority than her husband, the king. A woman who ruled with an iron fist, led armies, and held a title no other Maya woman had before. She was lost to history for centuries until archaeologists accidentally stumbled upon her tomb in the middle of the Guatemalan jungle.

Today, we’re talking about Lady K’abel, the Supreme Warrior Queen of the Maya civilization.

Hey tech lovers! In this episode of The LEO Podcast, we dive into three hot tech stories.

Billionaires, government contracts, and political drama—this episode has it all. First, we dive into how Elon Musk’s Starlink might take over the FAA’s $2.4 billion air traffic control upgrade (and why that’s raising eyebrows). Then, we break down Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) gaining access to confidential HUD records—housing discrimination cases, domestic violence reports, even medical files. Finally, we look at Apple’s bold stand against Trump’s push to eliminate corporate DEI programs. Is this all about innovation and efficiency, or is it just another billionaire power grab?
